How do App Engine version numbers work? Are they only integers? Can I use floats? Can I reuse old version numbers?
App Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform for developing and hosting web applications at scale. You can choose from several popular languages, libraries, and frameworks to develop your apps, and then let App Engine take care of provisioning servers and scaling your app instances based on demand.
Google App Engine provides four possible runtime environments for applications, one for each of four programming languages: Java, Python, PHP, and Go.
The App Engine standard environment is based on container instances running on Google's infrastructure. Containers are preconfigured with one of several available runtimes. The standard environment makes it easy to build and deploy an application that runs reliably even under heavy load and with large amounts of data.
Each Cloud Platform project can contain one App Engine application.
From the manual:

A version specifier for the application code. App Engine retains a copy of your application for each version used. An administrator can change which major version of the application is default using Administration Console, and can test non-default versions before making them default. The version specifier can contain letters, digits, and hyphens.
Each version of an application retains its own copy of app.yaml. When an application is uploaded, the version mentioned in the app.yaml file being uploaded is the version that gets created or replaced by the upload.
